Boss Design

A minimalist approach adding maximum value to any office space

In every industry and in every walk of life, there are those who lead and those who follow. There are those who push to break new ground, challenge the norm, and change the world for the better, and then there are those who quite content to simply sit back and settle for the status quo.

For Boss Design founder Brian Murray, settling for anything was never an option.

Despite leaving school with just a single O-Level, Murray hustled his way into an accounting role at a furniture manufacturing company and eventually found himself with the title Head of Finance. When that company fell on hard times, he took a gamble.

Risking it all on a £20,000 loan from the bank, Murray designed his first chair and found a British furniture manufacturer that was prepared to make it for him.

From that point on, Boss Design came to life and was an instant success.

The gamble pays off

It was the early 1980s, and everyone from the BBC to the Hippodrome in Leicester Square were snapping up the company’s maiden product, a simple chair known as The Delphi.

Thirty years later, having bought out both Lyndon and Komac along the way, the Boss Designs Group continues to lead the way in furniture design innovation.

The Delphi may have been put to rest, but in its place came a catalogue of simple-yet-stylish products which give a subtle nod to the aesthetic trends of the era in which the company was formed whilst ensuring that every product looks right at home in even the most ultra-modern of work environments.

Cutting edge creations from Komac

Where the Lyndon brand is all about timeless style and limitless sophistication, Boss Design Group's Komac range goes the other way - with fresh, funky seating solutions that are guaranteed to create a memorable first impression whenever anybody visits your business.

Never losing sight of what made them a success in the first place, Boss Design continues to offer a range of chairs and seating solutions for offices, breakout areas and other commercial spaces, each one combining modern minimalist influences with a classic style that lends each piece a certain sense of sophistication. Yet don’t mistake Boss Design furniture as being all style and no substance. Every piece is ergonomically designed to make it a practical addition to your environment. What’s more, the brand offers a number of other products that not only enhance the look and feel of your business’ premises, but which go a long way in making working and collaborating more effective, efficient, and enjoyable.

Brilliant break-out areas, magnificent media units and more

Continuing to take Boss Design to the forefront of British furniture manufacturing, Brian Murray has spent the past several decades leading the company into new and exciting avenues, coming out with cool break-out furniture, media units, and workstation pods.

Leading the way in luxury

For commercial spaces that require that added touch of luxury, the company’s Lyndon brand offers a range of elegantly designed, exquisitely upholstered furnishings.

From planning the floor plan and working with us on the design of the office, right through to completing the build and moving us in their can do approach made the move a real pleasure. Nothing was too much trouble and they were able to deliver a fantastic office within a tight deadline. I would recommend the Metric team and look forward to working with them again.

Séamus KavanaghChief Executive

I was very impressed at the professionalism, responsiveness and customer focused approach from Metric.
From the planning stage, Metric took time to get to know our business and really understand our requirements and as a result they did an excellent job in responding to our brief. The space planning and design services were excellent and the filtered choice of furniture was exactly in keeping with the style and look we wanted to create. The excellent relationships Metric have with their supply base ensured we got excellent value for money and the overall costs were affordable and in line with our budget.
The feedback from our employees and Board has been brilliant – everyone is really proud of the new office environment and there’s a real buzz of excitement in the office. I would recommend the team at Metric very highly and would definitely use them again on other projects.

"Metric have been a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. From giving advice at the planning stage and managing the project during installation we have been delighted with how smoothly our refurbishment has gone. Nothing was too much trouble for Edward and his team and we cannot recommend Metric highly enough. We are absolutely thrilled with the final result, which looks even better than we originally envisioned. On a personal note Ed has been an absolute star and I have really enjoyed working with him. The lovely guys doing the installation have all been superb, and I will genuinely be sad when the project is finished."

Our experience with Metric Office has been seamless from start to finish. After going through quite a complex transaction in order to obtain the office space, it was daunting looking at the amount of work that would need doing to make it habitable.
The Metric tradesmen have been a pleasure to deal with and have been very accommodating with fulfilling any last-minute requests.
This was our first time working with Metric but we have since chosen to use them at our Head Office for removal services and also new furniture. It is safe to say that this was the easiest and smoothest part of this Office acquisition process.
I would thoroughly recommend the whole team at Metric Office and look forward to working with them further in the future.
